This undated Girl Scout Holiday card may have been made at the council level. Style of the hat puts it in the 1930's. I added the green border to define the edges.

Girl Scout Christmas Catalogs were rare during the 1950's and apparently disappeared after that. It stayed that way until 2008 - when a "holiday" supplemental catalog was offered. Since then a few more have been offered.

Picture200.png

The 4-page 2008 "In The Spirit of Giving...Great Holiday Gift Ideas From Girl Scouts" offered 6 new ornaments, some patches & pins and a few other items. Most items used generic seasonal wording, those that didn't weren't seasonal items.

 

It completely omitted the word Christmas.

​

It did not contain any items for other faiths.

​

It was the first Christmas-y catalog in years.

Holiday-type Girl Scout catalogs came out somewhat regularly until 2015, then except for a couple of ornaments in the Gold/Silver/Bronze catalog of 2016 there hasn't been much.

​

As of September 2020, no new catalogs have been offered.
